HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Diosmin Hesperidin 1000 mg by We Like Vitamins

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains two active ingredients: diosmin and hesperidin, both plant-derived flavonoids (natural compounds found in citrus and other plants). Diosmin is used to strengthen blood vessel walls and improve circulation, particularly in conditions like chronic venous insufficiency and hemorrhoids.

Hesperidin works similarly — it's a bioflavonoid that supports vascular health. The product also contains inactive ingredients: gelatin (capsule shell), rice powder, magnesium stearate, and microcrystalline cellulose (binding and flow agents).

These are standard excipients that help the capsule hold together and flow smoothly during manufacturing.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: supports circulation and blood vessel health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), Hemorrhoids, Varicose veins, Venous leg ulcers, Lymphedema, spider veins — and 2 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Diosmin is rated "Possibly Effective" for Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Diosmin is rated "Possibly Effective" for Hemorrhoids, Venous leg ulcers.
  • Also on file: Diosmin is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Lymphedema, Varicose veins.

For diosmin, the evidence suggests it may help with chronic venous insufficiency (a condition where leg veins don't return blood well) and venous leg ulcers. It's also possibly effective for hemorrhoid symptoms.

The evidence for back pain and diabetic nerve pain is too limited to say one way or the other. For hesperidin, the data is less encouraging.

It appears possibly ineffective for weight loss and cholesterol levels. There isn't enough reliable evidence yet to rate it for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Diosmin Hesperidin

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Diosmin is generally well tolerated in the short term, though long-term safety data is sparse. Common side effects include abdominal pain, diarrhea, dizziness, nausea, and skin redness.

Rare but serious effects include irregular heartbeats and hemolytic anemia (a condition where red blood cells break down abnormally). Hesperidin is generally well tolerated in food amounts and short-term supplement use, but long-term data is limited.

One case of allergic skin reaction has been reported with a topical form. Regarding pregnancy and breastfeeding, diosmin is rated likely safe or possibly safe, while hesperidin data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding because there isn't enough information to know it's safe.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you if you're pregnant, nursing, or planning either.

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Diosmin, Hesperidin.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 1,141 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (such as warfarin, aspirin, or clopidogrel) — diosmin can increase bleeding risk. Also flag any blood pressure medications (antihypertensives), seizure medications like carbamazepine, muscle relaxers like chlorzoxazone, heart rhythm drugs such as verapamil or diltiazem, or any medication metabolized through liver pathways like CYP2C9, CYP3A4, or CYP2E1.

Because the product interacts with so many medication types, checking your specific drugs on this page before starting is important.

Diosmin9 drug types · 884 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, diosmin may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
A case of spontaneous intraventricular hemorrhage has been reported for a 77-year-old female after 6 weeks of warfarin therapy, despite an international normalized ratio (INR) of only 1.8. The patient had also been taking aspirin and diosmin for several years. Experts speculate that chronic intake of diosmin predisposed the patient to spontaneous intraventricular hemorrhage by inducing chronic microcirculatory hypertension and inhibiting platelet aggregation. The presence of aspirin was also thought to play a role in this event.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, diosmin might reduce the effects of carbamazepine and increase the risk for convulsions.
A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of carbamazepine 200 mg increases blood levels of carbamazepine by approximately 58% and decreases carbamazepine clearance by 42%. It also decreases the formation of carbamazepine's active metabolite. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of carbamazepine by inhibiting cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4).

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex)

Theoretically, diosmin might increase the levels and clinical effects of chlorzoxazone.
A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of chlorzoxazone 250 mg increases blood levels of chlorzoxazone by 53% and decreases chlorzoxazone clearance by 40%. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of chlorzoxazone by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1).

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might inhibit the metabolism of CYP2C9 substrates.
Diclofenac is metabolized by CYP2C9 enzymes. Clinical and laboratory research shows that diosmin inhibits the metabolism of diclofenac. A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of diclofenac 100 mg increases blood levels of diclofenac and decreases diclofenac clearance.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might inhibit the metabolism of CYP2E1 substrates.
Chlorzoxazone is metabolized by CYP2E1 enzymes. A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of chlorzoxazone (Paraflex 250) 250 mg increases blood levels of chlorzoxazone by 34% and decreases chlorzoxazone clearance by 40%. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of chlorzoxazone by inhibiting CYP2E1.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might inhibit the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
Laboratory research is conflicting with respect to the effects of diosmin on CYP3A4. Some research suggests that diosmin does not affect CYP3A4 activity. However, other research suggests that diosmin alters the metabolism of carbamazepine, a CYP3A4 substrate. Laboratory and animal research show that oral administration of diosmin for 7 days prior to oral administration of carbamazepine increases plasma concentrations of carbamazepine, decreases the clearance of carbamazepine, and decreases the formation of carbamazepine's active metabolite. Additionally, pharmacokinetic research in healthy male subjects shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of carbamazepine 200 mg increases blood levels of carbamazepine by approximately 58% and decreases carbamazepine clearance by 42%. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of carbamazepine by inhibiting CYP3A4. Diosmetin, a metabolite of diosmin, may also inhibit CYP3A4.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Diclofenac (Voltaren, Others)

Theoretically, diosmin might increase the levels and clinical effects of diclofenac.
Clinical and laboratory research shows that diosmin inhibits the metabolism of diclofenac. A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex 500) 500 mg daily for 9 days prior to oral administration of diclofenac 100 mg increases blood levels of diclofenac and decreases diclofenac clearance. It is speculated that diosmin reduces the metabolism of diclofenac by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9).

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Fexofenadine (Allegra)

Theoretically, diosmin might increase the levels and clinical effects of fexofenadine.
A pharmacokinetic study in humans shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of fexofenadine 120 mg increases blood levels of fexofenadine by approximately 49% and decreases the apparent oral clearance of fexofenadine by 41%. The time taken to reach maximum plasma concentration, the half-life, and the apparent renal clearance of fexofenadine are not affected. For this reason, it is speculated that diosmin alters the pharmacokinetics of fexofenadine via inhibition of P-glycoprotein in the intestine, but not in the kidney or liver.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, diosmin might increase levels of drugs that are substrates of P-glycoprotein (P-gp).
Preliminary laboratory research suggests that diosmin inhibits P-gp. Additionally, pharmacokinetic research in healthy male subjects shows that taking diosmin (Venex) 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to oral administration of fexofenadine 120 mg increases blood levels of fexofenadine, a P-gp substrate, by approximately 49% and decreases the apparent oral clearance of fexofenadine by 41%. The time taken to reach maximum plasma concentration, the half-life, and the apparent renal clearance of fexofenadine are not affected. For this reason, it is speculated that diosmin inhibits P-gp in the intestine, but not in the kidney or liver.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Hesperidin7 drug types · 702 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, hesperidin may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal research suggests that hesperetin, a bioflavonoid aglycone derivative of hesperidin, may have antiplatelet activity.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking hesperidin with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Some clinical and animal research shows that hesperidin can decrease blood pressure. However, other clinical research shows that hesperidin does not affect blood pressure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Celiprolol (Celicard)

Theoretically, hesperidin may decrease the levels and clinical effects of celiprolol.
Animal research shows that concomitant use of hesperidin may reduce the plasma area under the curve of celiprolol by up to 75%. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cns Depressants

Theoretically, concomitant use with CNS depressants may cause additive sedative effects.
Animal studies show that hesperidin has sedative effects, due to opioid receptor activity and can increase sedation when used with diazepam. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diltiazem (Cardizem, Others)

Theoretically, hesperidin may increase the levels and clinical effects of diltiazem.
Animal research suggests that hesperidin may enhance the bioavailability of diltiazem, increasing the plasma area under the curve of diltiazem by up to 65.3%. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, hesperidin might inhibit P-glycoprotein-mediated drug efflux and potentially increase levels of drugs that are substrates of P-glycoprotein.
In vitro research shows that hesperidin can inhibit P-glycoprotein efflux. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Verapamil (Calan, Others)

Theoretically, hesperidin might increase the levels and clinical effects of verapamil.
Animal research suggests that hesperidin may enhance the bioavailability of verapamil, increasing the plasma area under the curve of verapamil by 96.8%. This effect has not been reported in humans

Diosmin Hesperidin 1000 mg by We Like Vitamins: Common Questions

Does Diosmin Hesperidin 1000 mg by We Like Vitamins interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Diosmin Hesperidin 1000 mg has a known interaction with 1,140 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Diosmin Hesperidin 1000 mg contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is this safe to take during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
Diosmin is rated likely safe or possibly safe in pregnancy and lactation. Hesperidin, however, does not have enough safety data — the facts advise avoiding it during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Because this product contains both, you should talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's appropriate for you if you're pregnant, nursing, or planning either.
What are the most common side effects I might experience?
Diosmin most commonly causes abdominal pain, diarrhea, dizziness, nausea, and skin redness. These tend to occur in the short term. Serious side effects like irregular heartbeats or a breakdown of red blood cells are rare. If you notice any unusual symptoms, let your doctor or pharmacist know.
Does this product actually work for chronic venous insufficiency?
Diosmin is rated possibly effective for chronic venous insufficiency — meaning there's some evidence it may help, but it's not definitive. Hesperidin supports similar goals as a vascular strengthener, but its individual effectiveness for this condition isn't as well established. Results vary between people, so your experience may differ.
Will it help with high cholesterol or weight loss?
No. Hesperidin is rated possibly ineffective for both high cholesterol and weight loss. The evidence doesn't support using this product for those purposes.
How long should I take this for?
The facts note that diosmin is generally well tolerated short-term, but long-term safety is less well studied. There's no information on file about how long you should take it. That's a question for your doctor or pharmacist, who can advise based on your individual condition and response.
What are diosmin and hesperidin — are they natural?
Both are plant-derived flavonoids — natural compounds found in citrus fruits and other plants. Diosmin strengthens blood vessel walls and improves circulation, while hesperidin works similarly as a vascular supporter. They're often used together to address venous and circulatory health.
